"Rest" on Saturday, beating them by 70 land, Bennett and Buck all managed to secure double figures, though it must be mentioned that the first named bad considerable luck, being missed no less than three times. The "Rest" made a poor exhibition on their first innings, being all out for 52, though the telegraph at one time showed 20 runs with no wicket down. Following on, they managed to knock up 100 for the loss of seven wickets, Wallace, their captain, making 35 by sound cricket. Peace and Crawford bowled unchanged throughout the "'Rest's" first innings, the former taking six wickets for 24 runs.
